Regioselective ethoxy-carbonylation of indoles and indazoles using DEAD and tetraethylammonium cyanide

Abstract

The direct carbonylation of the heterocyclic amines like indoles and indazoles using diethylazodicarboxylate (DEAD) in the presence of tetraethyl ammonium cyanide (TEACN) resulted in regio-selective C- or N-ethoxycarbonylations depending on the substituents present on the benzene ring of these heteroaromatic compounds.
